My goal was to complete both of these as well as a batch or two of soap this weekend but due to numerous setbacks I was only able to complete the HDPE mold and mostly finish the cutter (still needs a raised soap platform with cuts for the wires). All said and done, I’m pleased with the outcome.
The cutter took me from Friday evening to Sunday evening to finish and was a pain in the rear every step of the way. I learned a lot and will most likely modify it later to be more sturdy, but for now it’ll do. Should be able to cut about 22 bars at 1”.
The HDPE mold took me no more than an hour to prep, cut and assemble. I still have enough leftover pieces to make a couple more of various sizes or one more the same size. Dimension of the mold should give me about 23 x 1” x 2” x 3” bars.
